Palin Slams “Professional Politicans” Via Twitter

Well, I think we all figured it would happen, but I didn’t think it would be this incoherent.

Yes, politicians are interested in winning and sometimes they can’t deliver on their entire agendas. I’m sure Palin hasn’t fulfilled 100% of her promises in her career. What’s new?

But to the broader point about what Palin calls “Professional Politicians” …let’s take a quick look at Palin’s 17 year political career and all the titles she has had.

• 1992 – 1996: Palin serves two terms on the Wasilla City Council.
• 1996 – 2002: Palin serves two terms as Wasilla’s mayor, the most allowed by term limit laws.
• 2002: Palin runs for and loses the GOP nomination for lieutenant governor.
• 2002: Gov. Frank Murkowski names Palin as chairwoman of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission.
• 2006: Palin becomes Alaska governor.
• 2008: John McCain asks Palin to be his running mate. When asked about the conversation by Charlie Gibson, she says she didn’t hesitate at all when McCain offered.

Hmm…seems like Sarah Palin has been pretty interested in titles and moving up the ladder for the better part of the past two decades. Not only that, she has run up against term limits too. So she held certain titles for as long as she could.

Basically, if she’s not a “Professional Politician,” well, I’m not a blogger.

Not only that, and this is to the broader point she’s making…does she genuinely not understand that the more powerful the office and the longer you’re able to hold it, the more chances you have to actually get things done?

Here’s the question: Does she really not realize she slamming herself?
